I remember Rod making fun of the people who went out and bought guns after Obama's election and re-election.

But after the recent events in CT, weren't those people ultimately correct? At first chance, liberals jump to ban guns or restrict access to them when politically expedient.

When asked "where he was" on the issue for the past four years by a Fox News reporter, the President basically said he was "busy".

Ditto with Feinstein. Now she's making it her crusade. She must have had her thumbs up her *** for the last 8 years. Since the ban ended there have been mass shootings involving semi-automatic rifles. I guess the fact that 20 young childen were murdered got the public worked up and politicians won't let a crisis go to waste.

Remember, "never let a crisis go to waste", and "We need legislation in the next 45 minutes or the country will collapse"

The Democrat mantra.
